OPSEC - Navy Operations Security

Always keep Navy Operations Security in mind.  In the Navy, it's essential to remember that "loose lips sink ships."  OPSEC is everyone's responsibility. 

DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.  

DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

Hi Mardee, I will wait for you to send me that but I'm not sure about the copy and paste, ha!! I will be able to ask my husband first if he knows how to do it. I think he will but if not, don't worry, I will reply back to you. I will be thinking about all of them this week with the battle stations. I hope they all do well.
